Essential electronic music that delivers evocative soundscapes and smothered ambiences.
Translated to deep pressure you can easily hear Nev.Era’s impacting sound on the latest with Discontinu. Slicing sincere ambient fiddling among rhythmic technoid spheres, there’s a sense of calm and emotive movements on Presión Profunda. “Con.tacto” displays tempered voices that slither across a slippery landscape of analog basslines and atmospheric debris—its eventual explosive rhythmic noise merits repeated listening. “Sumersión” glides into lava flows of sparse horns, a clicks’n cuts fabric of crisped beats and fuzzy melodies that clip, drip and fall away into oblivion. The title track maneuvers its way across silky strands of ambience and calm drones in one fluid wash of melodious layering and tinkering bells. “Flotando” and “Absorción” seem to be the more upbeat siblings. Shivering their quasi-techno stance and shoegaze sheen as they slide into port-royal terrain, an evolving electronic pulse continues to fade into a dense fog. The brisk ambient loops, tethered synths and emotional backdrop of “OndaSSísmicas” float by as if administered by Boards Of Canada and Penfold Plum operating in unison.
While seemingly more of an extended player, Presión Profunda is essential electronic music that delivers evocative soundscapes and smothered ambiences.
If you cannot wait until the end of November to grab this one, listen to the “Con.tacto” single.
Presión Profunda is available on Discontinu.
